Inflammatory Bowel

Inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis (UC) may be complicated by several extraintestinal manifestations. These involve joints, skin, eyes and less commonly lungs and heart. Myocarditis may result from the toxic effect of drugs (ie, mesalazine) commonly used for the treatment of UC or due to infections (eg, Coxsackieviruses, enteroviruses, adenovirus). Here, we report a case of a 26-year old man affected by UC and complicated by two episodes of myocarditis. Both episodes occurred during two severe exacerbations of UC. However, in both cases the aetiology of myocarditis remains uncertain being ascribable to extraintestinal manifestation, drug toxicity or both.

Extraintestinal Manifestation

A clinical case of a combination of ulcerative colitis with cirrhosis in the outcome of primary sclerosing cholangitis in a twelve-year-old child is presented. The uniqueness of the clinical observation lies in the atypical onset of ulcerative colitis in the form of complaints of weakness and headache, as well as detected anemia of 3 severity. It is important that the child lacked diarrhea, blood in the stool, tenesmus, weight loss, and fever. Of the most characteristic signs of liver damage, only itching of the skin of the lower extremities was noted. As a result, the child was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver at the end of the extraintestinal manifestation of ulcerative colitis — primary sclerosing cholangitis.

Introduction: Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a rare extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) which is typically responsive to corticosteroid treatment.Case Presentation: We report a case of a 17-year-old male diagnosed with ulcerative colitis who subsequently developed acute pancreatitis. Blood tests demonstrated elevated pancreatic enzyme levels of amylase (1319 U/L) and lipase (809 U/L). Abdominal computed tomography revealed peripancreatic fat stranding and the presence of a perisplenic pseudocyst. Azathioprine and mesalazine were stopped as possible causes of drug-induced pancreatitis. However, pancreatic enzymes remained elevated and corticosteroid treatment was started. Despite corticosteroid therapy, amylase and lipase levels continued to increase. Infliximab was started due to a flare in gastrointestinal symptoms of ulcerative colitis. Follow-up abdominal ultrasonography revealed a pancreatic tail mass. Tumor markers, including CA 19-9, were elevated and atypical cells were seen on histological examination of an endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy. Surgical pancreaticosplenectomy was performed for suspected pancreatic neoplasm. Surprisingly, histology revealed chronic pancreatitis with storiform fibrosis and infiltration of IgG4-positive cells, compatible with AIP type 1. Thereafter, pancreatic enzymes gradually decreased to normal levels and the patient has been in remission for 9 months on infliximab monotherapy.Conclusion: Pediatric gastroenterologists should keep in mind that AIP may develop during the natural course of pediatric IBD. Moreover, the development of pancreatic fibrosis may be non-responsive to corticosteroid treatment and mimic pancreatic neoplasia.

Thrombosis, mainly venous, is a rare and well-recognized extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We describe a 25-year-old Caucasian man affected by ulcerative colitis and sclerosing cholangitis with an episode of right middle cerebral arterial thrombosis resolved by intraarterial thrombolysis. We perform a brief review of the International Literature.

AbstractObjective:Systemic autoimmune diseases, including ulcerative colitis, may involve the inner ear. Several ulcerative colitis cases presenting with sensorineural hearing loss have been reported. We report the T2-weighted, three-dimensional, inner-ear magnetic resonance imaging findings in the inner ears of two such patients.Methods:Case reports and a review of the literature concerning autoimmune disease and sensorineural hearing loss are presented.Results:We describe two cases of ulcerative colitis with sensorineural hearing loss in which three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging revealed obliteration of the inner ear. Those inner ears with obliteration had severe hearing loss, and responded poorly to steroid therapy.Conclusion:To our knowledge, there has been no previous published report of the T2-weighted, inner-ear magnetic resonance imaging findings of cases of ulcerative colitis with sensorineural hearing loss. This paper represents the first published report in the world literature of inner-ear obliteration in such patients. Three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging is beneficial in elucidating the pathophysiology of the inner-ear involvement seen in ulcerative colitis.
